The Rubio Shuffle-Dance and His Attack on Cruz

“I’m personally against abortion [amnesty, Muslim "refugees", H1-B] BUT who am I to prevent others from
having one.” ... Rubio seems to be running a campaign in which
he is a Rorschach candidate, an empty vessel, someone whose views, even
if not articulated, are completely aligned with your own. Rather like an
obscure, one-term Illinois senator back in 2008....

We should add that the same duck/weave/dodge BS shows up in the "...it's settled law" horsecrap about Obergefell.

Shorter: the Earnest Young Fellow will attempt to baffle you with bullshit.

Meantime, he's going to try to smear Cruz, but not really to win voters. It's to get money.

...This attack is not about hurting Cruz with voters because only a moron
could think that Cruz’s answer on his amendment is going to be more
damage that Rubio explaining how he told Florida voters he would never
vote for amnesty, then supported and helped shape an amnesty bill, then
decided he was against amnesty again. This attack is about bringing Jeb
Bush donors on board. And the way to attract Bush and other
establishment donors to the Rubio campaign is to give them attacks that
they want to hear. Attacks that don’t resonate with GOP primary voters
but which are catnip to the establishment. And what better way to
communicate to the GOP establishment that you are about to take out the
most dangerous man in the race with a can’t-lose-killer-strategy than to
trumpet that strategy in POLITICO....
